Geometric: Motion Lamp Project
Today we learned that we are going to design a geometric motion lamp!
Above are the constraints for the project. I noted that there are some additional constraints that will need to be accomplished for my project to be considered advanced.
Above are the steps we are going to take for the electronics/coding portion of the project.
Above are the steps we are going to take for the physical enclosure portion of the project.

Today we created the code for the lights in the Geolamp. The code that I made showed where the lights are and what color they are. They also show the light patterns that I created.

Today we learned that we are going to make bandsaw boxes as our first project.
The purpose of this project is to learn how to use the tools safely.
These are the skills we are expected to have at the end of the project.
Puzzle 1:
This is the first puzzle that my table cut out with the bandsaw and put together.
Puzzle 2:
This is the second puzzle that my table cut out with the bandsaw and put together.
Bandsaw Safety
Do's:
Wear eyeglasses
Turn off saw after use
Clean up your area after use
Don'ts:
Put your fingers near the blade
Distract the person using the blade
Leave more of the blade exposed then you need to

Today in class I used wood to draw our pieces. I also used the table saw to cut the wood in half so it would be easier to cut the parts out of.

Today in class I used the nail gun to nail the back and bottom of the build together. I also smoothed the pieces down with sandpaper so they were smooth.

Today in class I used the bandsaw to cut the triangle for the side and the drill press the make the circles on the top piece. I also used wood glue to assemble the product.
Final Product
Final Product
This is my project. It is a cornhole.
The project size constraints were to be less than 18"x18" and the final dimensions of my project are 5 7/8"x12" for the top piece, 9"x8 1/3" for the triangle, 6"x8" for the back, 5 7/8"x9" for the bottom, 6"x2.6" for the first inside piece, and 6"x5.2" for the second inside piece.
It was expected that my project would be made out of 6 or more parts. My project is made out of 6 parts.
I give my craftsmanship an 8/10 for this project because there are certain places that aren't equal.

I am most proud of the creative aspect of the project. Cornholes usually have 3 pieces and it was nice that we were able to add another 3 pieces to it.
Camera Pull Apart
Camera Pull Apart
Today in class we are going to take apart this camera. We know that this can do: take pictures, take videos, can rotate (the lens), zoom.
I think that these things will be inside:
Motherboard
Glass dome
Copper Wires
Motor
Screws
LAN Cable
Lens
Gears

There are 4 legs that don't move. The entire table is painted grey. Each of the legs are flat at the bottom so it can stand on its own.
